A backup generator can be connected to the system to back up the system if there is limited sunshine to charge the batteries or if there are short periods of increased loads.

We can install this system from only $13,450.00 + GST. Please use our adviser to confirm YOUR special price.

2kWh Off-Grid Case Study
In early 2014 we upgraded the existing Off-Grid power system on a Bach in Glenhope near Nelson.
The Bach is used on a regular basis for the weekend or up to a week or so at a time and while occupied the daily consumption is just under 2kWh/day.

Now with the new solar system (780watt) installed the backup generator is hardly ever required.

In addition to the solar system we replaced some existing lighting with new LED lights to reduce some load and increase the quality of the lighting inside.

A backup generator can be connected to the system to back up the system if there is limited sunshine to charge the batteries or if there are short periods of increased loads.

3.5kWh Off-Grid Case Study

In 2010 we installed an off grid power system on a house in Portage Bay, Marlborough.

The house has a retired couple living there most of the year with a daily consumption around 3.2kWh/day.

The couple have a small electric fridge, lighting, washing machine, TV, radio and water pump as well as a few addition kitchen appliances and power tool now and then.

A backup generator is used to top up the battery bank in times of extended bad weather or if there is increased consumption while friends and family stay during holiday periods

5.5kWh/day Off-Grid Power System $33,250.00 + GST

This off grid power system is designed for an average daily consumption of up to 5.5kWh and would generally be suited to a standard off grid home with an average daily consumption.

This is a generic design and we would always suggest that we check your energy requirements as well as the sunshine hours for your location to ensure its suitability.
This system includes;

9 x 260watt Renesola PV Solar Panels (2.34kWp),

Flat mounted solar mounting frame,

Selectronic SPPRO Inverter/Charger 5kW 48volt,

Outback Flexmax 80amp Solar Controller,

Enersun 1,025ah 48volt lead acid Battery Bank,

Pramac 4.8kVa Diesel Generator,

Cables, connection, labels and manuals,

Installation labour.

A backup generator has been included in this system to ensure you always have an abundance of energy even with bad weather and also to equalise (condition) the batteries regularly.

We can install this system from only $33,250.00 + GST. Please use our adviser to confirm YOUR special price.

5.5kWh Off-Grid Case Study

In 2011 we installed an Off-Grid power system on a shed in Redwood Valley near Nelson to power the client’s house nearby.

We fitted a Solar Water Heating system on the house roof and so there was not a lot of additional room available for the solar PV panels and as the battery bank was to be installed in the shed, it made sense to fit the solar PV panels there too.

The house is around 300m2 and their daily consumption of around 5kWh is fairly consistent with most family sized systems we install.

Their house has a standard fridge/freezer, LED lighting, washing machine, dish washer, TV, radio, computer, solar water heating under floor heating and fresh water supply pumps as well as a few addition kitchen appliances and power tool now and then.

Cooking is done with a gas over and they also have a wood oven which provides additional heat for the underfloor heating system and the domestic hot water.

A backup generator is used to top up the battery bank in times of extended bad weather or if there is increased consumption while friends and family visit.

This Off-Grid power system is designed for an average daily consumption of up to 8kWh and would generally be suited to an off-grid home with an above average daily consumption.

This is a generic design and we would always suggest that we check your energy requirements as well as the sunshine hours for your location to ensure its suitability.

This system includes;

15 x 260watt Renesola PV Solar Panels (3.9kWp),

Flat mounted solar mounting frame,

Selectronic SPPRO Inverter/Charger 5kW 48volt,

Outback Flexmax 80amp Solar Controller,

Enersun 1,750ah 48volt lead acid Battery Bank,

Pramac 7.5kVa Diesel Generator

8kWh Off-Grid Case Study

In 2013 we installed an Off-Grid power system on a home in Taupo for a young family of 5.

The house is around 280m2 and their daily consumption of around 7.8kWh is slightly more than the average family sized systems we install. In addition to this the sunshine hours in Taupo are a bit less than areas like Nelson and Marlborough.

Their house has a standard fridge/freezer, chest freezer, LED lighting, washing machine, dish washer, TV, radio, computers, fresh water supply pump as well as a few addition kitchen appliances and power tool now and then. As the client works from home fairly regularly, this has increased their daily consumption above an average off Grid home.

Cooking and water heating is done with a gas and a log burner is used to heat the house in conjunction with a heat transfer system.

A backup generator is used to top up the battery bank in times of extended bad weather or if there is increased consumption while friends and family visit.

This client is very happy with their install and we are now looking at completing a system for another family member.

Save Money
Each year, power prices increase at a rate of around 7.5% on average. Combined with a big drop in price, solar is now a financially sound option. By going solar, you can lock in lower rates for power. While the cost of electricity increases with time, your solar PV will deliver more and more savings as you tap into the free power of Northland’s sun.Increased property value
The electricity savings from solar panels translate directly into an increased home resale value. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development
